Polesitter Norris McLaren) will be investigated after the race for a starting procedure infringement. Alpine had an incredible race with Esteban Ocon finishing second and Pierre Gasly in third for a double podium finish. Russell Mercedes) finished fourth and Charles Leclerc (Ferrari) completed the top five in fifth.
Norris finished sixth in a disappointing Sunday for the McLaren driver with Yuki Tsunoda behind him in seventh.

Christie’s recently removed a 1958 Ferrari 250 GT Coupe’, allegedly once owned by actress Angelina Jolie, from its upcoming “Exceptional Sale” in Paris. Originally slated as a headline lot for the November 20 auction, the Pininfarina-designed Ferrari was expected to fetch between $660,000 and $880,000. However, questions about its provenance raised, leaving collectors and fans wondering about its true ownership history.
Christie’s has claimed the Ferrari belongs to Jolie, though it has yet to provide photographic proof or ownership documentation. In response to these uncertainties, Jolie’s team requested the car’s withdrawal from the sale.

Fourth place for Hamilton (Mercedes) who was able to recover from the starting sixth place, winning also the duel with the teammate Russell.
Sixth place for Verstappen (Red Bull) who received a 20 second penalization for causing a car accident with Norris and for track limits.

And now, this legendary vehicle is set to be auctioned from November 14th through the 19th through a previous registration on RM Sotheby’s website. Any forecast for the final price or about any bidding for this car are definitely impossible.

Leclerc was this week at the Trento Sports Festival in Italy. We managed to win in Monza e Monaco this year, but now my only goal is to win the world championship. I work only for this.

The 2025 will be not only the debut year for the first fully electric Ferrari. It will be also the year when the brand new Ferrari's unnamed hypercar is scheduled to debut. Rumors say it could be the first halo car since the F40 to have fewer than 12 cylinders. It may have a hybrid V-8 or even a high-powered hybrid V-6 borrowed from the 296 GTB. It will easily come close to 1,000 horsepower.
Like the SF90, this new hypercar should also have a small amount of electric range. The SF90 can travel 15 miles on battery power. The production could be limited at just less of 30 examples globally. The reason is also the price: anticipations say around $2 million.

The first two Ferrari road cars have been lost to time, but New Zealanders Amanda and Philip still have, and regularly drive, the third example. This 1948 Ferrari 166 Inter, a right-hand-drive coupe, is the oldest Ferrari road car in the world. In 1948 this car would have been an incredible sight on the street, but more than that its 2-liter V12 would have been maybe the best sound to ever come from a car at that point. It only made about 90 horsepower, but it was perfect at that time.
The car is now in New Zealand with its owners. They discovered the car many years ago while reading a magazine from Alaska, where they had been for some years. After many years of searching and researching the couple was able to restore and to put again on the road the car.

This racing car was built only four examples, its chassis number is 0592 CM, and it’s the most original of the four 410 S examples. Sold for $1,627,500 the 1966 Ferrari Supercast II Pininfarina. The 1995 Ferrari F50 changed ownership for $5,505,000.
Always from the RM Sotheby’s catalogue, they have been sold for a price over a million: a 1966 Ferrari 275 GTB/6c Scaglietti ($3,481,000), a 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 NART ($5,285,000), a 1972 Ferrari 365 GTS/4 Daytona spider Scaglietti ($2,205,000), a 1959 Ferrari 250 GT LWB California spider Scaglietti ($5,615,000), a 1954 Ferrari 500 Mondial Spider Pininfarina ($2,810,000).

The winning Michael Schumacher Ferrari 310B from the 1997 Monaco Grand Prix is back on the circuit. Nowadays, the car is owned by 80-year-old Erich Zech. The German was already in Assen last year, but back then the car was not ready for action. Earlier this month, the 310B was finally seen on track. It was phenomenal," admitted Zech. "What I loved the most and what touched me was the reaction of the fans. They stood up and applauded, which was great to witness”.
Zech has fulfilled his boyhood dream at a respectable age. "I used to watch Schumacher's races and also went to the grand prix when it was still in Hockenheim."
There is no such thing as an “ordinary” F40. A car with such a pedigree, with such outrageous design, such compelling performance, and of such rarity, could never be anything but spectacular.
The car will be offered at Monterey Car week among many others multimillion cars. Notable for being the last supercar developed during Enzo Ferrari’s lifetime, the F40 was a pure distillation of everything "Il Commendatore" had poured into his company over the preceding four decades.
Historical context aside, this one - starting from around 1.5 million offer -looks as everyone has to see showing how this machine got its enduring nickname: the “Minty Forty”, for its unusual color.

It was a McLaren one-two, and after the race it seemed all the radio talks were already over. Lewis Hamilton comes home third after a collision with Verstappen, with Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc in fourth.
Verstappen arrived fifth, but may yet be penalised for the collision with Hamilton late on. Sixth place for the other Ferrari driver Sainz, right before Perez (Red Bull) and Russell (Mercedes).

An online auction website has an exclusive car on sale: it's a 1985 Ferrari Testarossa Koenig Specials Competition Evolution II. When modifications were completed in 1986, this car's - a 4900cc twin-turbocharged engine - was pumping out a colossal 1000 horsepower, more power than a factory Testarossa and a contemporary Porsche 959 together. The 17" multi-piece wheels wear 335-mm wide tires, steamroller rubber for the time but perhaps not enough for full surge of all that turbocharged horsepower.
Fake versions of luxury goods is a never ending battle, but Ferrari refuses to throw in the towel no matter how many counterfeit items it captures. And the number of fakes Ferrari finds is a lot. Accordingly to some data released by the Italian luxury factory, they tracked, seized, and destroyed more than 400,000 knockoff items in 2023, including three whole cars.
Ferrari doesn’t detail what those counterfeit cars were, but they had to be pretty good to catch their attention, and they were so good to be sold at very high prices. Not all the times the owners understand how rigorously apply the rules. So it’s about Ferrari make the buyer understand the legal consequences that they are facing.
Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes) won a partially wet F1 British Grand Prix in Silverstone, after two years with no victory, reaching the incredible goal of nine victories on the hometown circuit. Hamilton victory not only set a record for the most wins at a single track by any driver in Formula 1 history but also showcased Hamilton's resilience and dedication to the sport, on the eve to join Ferrari from next year. Second place for Verstappen (Red Bull) who never had the pace to win the race.
Norris (McLaren) was penalized by some team strategies but also showed a slower pace at the end of the race. Russell (Mercedes) started 1st but then, after losing some positions, was forced to retire due to a water system problem. Fastest lap was set by Carlos Sainz with Ferrari, but the weekend was anyway difficult for his team, especially for Leclerc who finished 14th. Sainz, despite the fastest lap, arrived 5th with a 47 second gap from Hamilton and 35 seconds from Piastri (McLaren), 4th.
